Hi guys. I want to get into SEO and earn through Google Adsense. Been doing SEO articles on oDesk and I feel that the time is right for me to have my own blog site(s) and SEO them just like I have been doing for others. Could someone with his or her own blog site(s) please guide me. Also I would appreciate if anybody with Adsense experience guide me a bit. Thanx in advance.

I am a bit confused here. You say you have been doing it for others, that means you already have the principles that you need at hand to start a blog and Optimize it to get organic traffic. Once you have that, Adsense is a no brainer. Apply for an Adsense for content account (you need to have a Gmail account), get the code and embed on your blog. Then, hopefully visitors to your blog will click them and money is in your account!

@moneymonger,
what i mean is that i have been doing it as a freelancer for the $$$ that they pay me. am now getting to realise that i have been helping the fellows make money. there is a certain fellow in China whom i am writing for. he told me he quit teaching English in China so he can concentrate on SEO. and he tells me he is really making money.
so its not that i have the experience in doing SEO per se but i have the basics.

Making good $$$ via Google Adsense is tough business especially here in Kenya. Patience is a great virtue in this venture, it's only recently that I started earning abit of good cash after running my 3 websites for almost 4 years.

SEO goes had-in-glove with Adsense, your sites/blog has to be optimized and marketed very well online (hopefully by you to save on extra costs). The idea is to implement various internet marketing strategies at the same time so as to attract and retain relevant traffic to your sites.

Finally, if you want to make it in Google Adsense, focus on several niche sites with well targeted traffic. Running only one site is almost zero work, you will be earning cents by the end of the month. I'm currently working on 2 more niche sites.

Are there other companies other than google that offer good returns? Has anybody out there experimented with other advertisement providers

1.Adsense
2.Infolinks
3.Clicksor (i dont like them)
4.Chikita, adbrite plus many more but cheap.

Things to note:

-Adsense is best cz people are familiar with google and trust their ads.
-Adsense is very strict.Avoid 3rd party advertising sites(those which promise you shortcuts to increase traffic. Adsense will disqualify you.
- Adsense may bring in more but ur blog will determine how much.
-Run it for a while before applying.Traffic is key
-Make use of high paying adsense keywords.Google search engine knows how to pick them up and expose ur blog more.
-You can create more money by having a million blogs.But who has time to update them? One blog is enough work!
-Adsense ads appear as blocks,infolinks appear in btwn text with double underlines. Not attractive.
Your blog must have lots of texts for infolinks to work.

The most important thing with blogs is traffic.
It's the heartbeat of any blog cz it's traffic that brings in money constant updates,will really help.Links,mail follow up,proper gadgets too aid.

I prefer adsense or infolink or both in a blog but it will look clustered and ugly.
Besides ur adsense revenue will reduce if u do both. I got that from a blogger.

Ok go for it but don't expect much at first.People earn cents after months cz they dont know how to make their blogs attract traffic.
I create blogs as a hobby but I've decided make the hobby a lucrative one.

Right now am building traffic b4 i apply for ad or info.

Adsense works very well if you understand what keys to press. Leverage on other Google services to improve your website and traffic. For example; Analytics, Webmasters and Adwords.

All these used together will help you understand the performance of your blog/website and help you improve it.

I would advise you to also pick a mentor and learn from them, mine is Tim Carter : AskTheBuilder.com I have emulated what this guy does over the last 1 year and trust me my revenue increased.

Thanks all. My friend in China advises me to start with squidoo. And then point its lense to amazon kindle or something like that. Since am not an IT wizard, I will take a few days to learn this squidoo thing and may be start there. I should have atleast two blogs up and running by august.

I don't want to spoil this adsense party. But you really should research more and get other sources of revenue. Adsense is not good for you.

Adding your site to anything to do with google is the worst thing you can do for your online business.

However, the best teacher is experience. So I will let the party go on. Before you attack me for being negative. The first paragraph of this post has more than you need to succeed online.

Ask wazua how they are doing with adsence being one of the most visited sites in Kenya.
